Gimme a smile


Gimme a smile…
Before grinding the sins,
God requires to show no credentials.
Rushing, swallow the crystal ice-creams
we forge freeing,  develop connection.

Gimme a smile…
Daily ritual, containment -
boiling pot with a lid on, - it’s fine,
keep serenity…. fearless?
won’t you channel potential
when the chances  arise?..

Gimme a smile...
Outraged umbrellas,
urban dresses across seasons’ will
won't withdraw me from seeing thru
high-condense clouds,
we're still climbing up hill…

Gimme a smile…
I'll embrace a resurrection:
a path, a bridge to the moon.

Gimme a smile…
Foolish heart’s muggy madness
I'll heal to the last micro wound.

    I like how you used every bit of the prompt.
    And in the end, without magic, will help to heal.

    Thanks for your visit. Maybe I'll add that piece into an already existing saga - I have too many...

    I really like those outraged umbrellas.. Not a combo you would see often, and I think a smile would go a long way.. :-)

    a smile goes miles long when you don't feel friendship at times.

    love the energy in your words.

    "Should I offer you a but a smile
    Please don't be disappointed
    So many give -
    a lot less"

    Very nice piece.

    "Gimme a smile...
    Outraged umbrellas,
    ... a bridge to the moon."

    I believe I just gave your poem at least 13 smiles; all lucky, warm and full of dance.

    This words sing. And I love that. ♥

    'Outraged umbrellas,
    urban dresses across seasons’ will
    won't withdraw me from seeing thru
    high-condense clouds,
    we're still climbing up hill…'.

    The drama in your imagery creates suspense for the plot; hoping the climb is not to heavy on the heart.

    Enjoyed this; thanks for sharing!
